Compensation up to $1000 for completing all study visits. 12 visits over 4 years. Children in the study will receive eye exams and contact lenses at no cost while participating in the study.
Orthokeratology lens for individuals aged 8-18
*Currently Enrolling*
Do you have a child who wears glasses or contacts? We are currently seeking children ages 6-18 to participate in a new overnight wear orthokeratology contact lens study on nearsightedness (myopia).
You will be compensated for your time for 6 visits over about 2 months.
Orthokeratology lens for individuals 12 and up
*Enrollment Closed*
Are you or your child interested in orthokeratology use? Have you been told you have astigmatism? You might qualify for a clinical trial involving Non-spherical posterior peripheral curves. Please contact out clinical study coordinator for a paid screening visit.
Neurotrophic Keratitis treatment
*Currently Enrolling*
If you have been told that you have Neurotrophic Keratitis or have a non-healing epithelial defect on your cornea it is possible that you may qualify for this 10 week clinical trial.
Epithelium On Collagen Corneal Crosslinking
*Enrollment Closed*
You may be eligible to take part in this research study if you have been diagnosed with progressive keratoconus, a condition in which the cornea (clear front part of the eye) thins and becomes cone-shaped, causing visual problems.
This research study is looking at an investigational new cross-linking treatment for slowing the progression of keratoconus. “Investigational” means it has not been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
